Volition has acknowledged ongoing issues with the PC version of Saints Row: The Third, but promised it's still plugging away at them.

The problems affect users with AMD and ATi graphics cars, especially in the 5000 and 6000 ranges, and manifest as stuttering or general performance issues.

"Our team has provided multiple patches and updates attempting to correct this issue by adjusting key parts of Saints Row: The Third at the guidance of AMD/ATi, and they have shown mild improvement," a representative wrote on the game's forum.

"Those with SLI no longer see micro-stuttering, and based on our performance tests, we've been able to increase overall performance.

"For those with affected cards, we're still not up the level of quality we all expect from a Volition game, and we thank you for your patience as we work with AMD for a solution."

Updates are promised as soon as possible.

Thanks, Joystiq.
