How to configure Mingw-w64 for Qt creator? [Windows 8.1 64bit]

Hello,
I'm trying to configure Mingw-w64 for Qt creator but it's not showing up as a auto-detected kit. I've been looking at this page on the wiki https://wiki.qt.io/MinGW-64-bit but I still can't get it. So I've downloaded msys2 and run pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5 (that's building it yeah?) but after I don't know what to do. Can someone please help me!
Thank you.

you might want to try downloading a ready-inside x64 mingw with QtCreator from custom build pages, then add another "more official" kits into it if need. good luck

Not auto-detecting isn't really a problem. You can always add it manually.

Just add as Mingw,and link the binaries.
