Bad shadowing with objects and smoothing

I'm seeing some wonky shadowing on some objects with smoothing enabled on it.

See the computer table, there's an inner and outer table. Computer_Table the larger, Computer_Table_InnerTable the smaller. For some reason the shadowing doesn't get weird on one. There are also other scenes where I'm having the issue too. How do I fix it? Often disabling the smoothing results with heavily faceted curved surfaces.

You can use Octane smoothing - In the setup window of the plugin change the smoothing angle to 80. Refresh and Octane smoothing will be used. It is a global setting for the plugin

Awesome, I think that did it! Now more time for renders...
