My PC specs:
AMD Athlon X2 250 processor
Nvidia gts450 graphics card
4gb ram
First when I started the game it was constant 40-50fps until the rocket scene the frame drop from 40 to 16fps I thought that was only that scene
problem but when I get into the steelport I get severe frame drops from 40 to 20 and when I get superpowers the games was almost unplayable I tried change setting from ultra to lowest - no effect the only effect that I found out was light option set to high drops even more fps I even tried to change resoliution to 600x480
Is anyone else has this problem?

Your computer is too weak to run that game well. Especially your CPU

"The game Saints Row 4 from Deep Silver developer Volition is now on Steam represented with its system requirements. While the minimum requirements of the previous game Saints Row 3 remained unchanged, the recommended hardware requirements have now been adapted to the top. So at least an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 or alternatively an AMD Phenom 9850 is recommended for a smooth gaming experience in a similar quality. Memory should be at least 4 GiByte available. The graphics card, a Radeon HD 5850 or a Geforce GTX 260 GTS is recommended with one GiByte graphics memory. - See more at...

No, it's not solved!If It would be CPU limited there probably would be at lest SOME change when I turned reflections to off I even tried overclock cpu to 3,8Ghz it was unstable and crashed after few minutes but I haven't noticed any significant improvement maybe +1fps

As the guy above said, you have cpu bottleneck. This game requires at least 3 or more cpu cores to keep the fps above 30fps all the time. The same thing happened with SR3, you should find some benchmarks on google.

I already tried the game with a dual core cpu at 3.7ghz, along with a radeon 5870. Crap performance no matter what settings you use, low gpu usage.

Sorry to say I have same issue and I have a AMD Phenom II x6 1005T Black Edtion 6 core cpu, 16gb RAM and GTX 560ti which everything I throw at it on High or Ultra such as Crysis2, Dishonoured, Saint Row 3 even runs fine at high/max details.

Saints Row 4 run stuttery, not smooth. Tried on sons PC of similar spec and he has same issues

the game settings being changed make little to NO difference therefore its the game which is the issue.
