There are two, one is A8-7680 and the other is A6-7480.

A8-7680 is Bristol Ridge based off A10-9700.
A6-7480 is also Bristol Ridge, but based off A6-9500.

It appears mostly aimed at China for running Blizzard's Overwatch and Riot's League of Legends at extremely low prices.
A8-7680 is guessed at 299-399 yuan in CN forums/news. No mention of a6-7480 with its price in yaun, but it will probably be cheaper than the a8-7680.

So, Internet Cafes and Tencent's(etc) Gaming/LAN Lounges.

I'm pretty sure LoL runs slow on a "dual core" FX, my old A4-4000 overclocked to 4350MHz can confirm it. Good thing I dropped that game.
No idea on Overwatch, on the low end it's limited by GPU performance (try it on an Intel iGP).
