In short AMD APUs are meant for those who are on a strict budget, or who want a low power PC/ slim pc build. An FX6300 has faster and more powerful cores while the GPU is by far faster than the A10's integrated graphics. Go with the FX 6300 without doubt.

Thanks RazerZ, I remember you helping me before :D

Is there anything else I need to do for the FX build? Like is it all compatible?

For a few pounds more you can get 1TB of storage and a better monitor,case, and faster ram :) Also the motherboard you chose before wasn't compatible with the ram so I made all those changes and here it is:
