I think it's safe to assume that the FX 6300 and 77xx will cremate the APU. However, I would still wait for it to come out, because by that time, more powerful hardware will be cheaper, and you may have more money to spend. Also, you want to make sure that CPU+GPU will actually beat an APU, in the off chance the APU will get a huge upgrade in CPU core and graphics design, making it more powerful than a CPU+GPU combo.
