I dont mind buying a different graphics card for any of the two but witch pc is better.
 
Solution
well the i3 would probably be better for those games, but in your setup you have not paired it with a dedicated graphics card, which automatically gives your 6300 setup with an r7 250 a massive performance lead in games. if you paired the i3 with an r7 250, it would take the lead.

for gaming the fx 6300 build has a dedicated graphics card(r7 250) which is way better then the hd intel integrated graphics. so if your buying this to game surf the wed and watch movies or listen to music go with the firt one(fx 6300)

I assume these are prebuilt PC's.

The fx-6300 one is better BUT if like you posted you're willing to change the GPU go with the i3 but then you'll likely need to change the PSU as well.

Can't you build it yourself?

Prebuilt = Cheap as Hell PSU
as basic motherboard as possible
and worse value for money.

Ye this oddly enough smells ahell like a prebuild.
No info about MOBO, dont expect to overclock on that fx 6300
Bad GPU on FX 6300 and an IGP on Intel build, both are pretty bad.(GPU is better than the IGP)
