Make sure your irradiance map settings are high enough. It looks like it's a GI thing.

*im still doing some test, so my set is LOW, you mean if i increase the setting to MEDIUM or HIGH maybe, it will be eliminated?

Yeah, first thing you might try is setting the "interp samples " to a higher number, the default is 20, try 30 or 40. This will kind of smooth out the irradiance map.

Your Hsph Subdv's are way to low... they need to be around 30 or 50 and your interpolated samples need ot be around 50 or 60
