Help with voltages

I have an MSI GTX 660 ti and having overclocked it a bit I wondered if anyone who knows more than I do about overclocking GPUs could tell me if the voltage I currently have set is damaging the card. Here is what GPU-Z reports under full load: (Using Kombustor Fur Test)
Core: 1188.9Mhz
Mem: 1560.6Mhz
Temp: 70c
Pwr Consumption: 82% TDP
VDDC: 1.1750V

GPU Shark states that this is the Overvoltage limit, and also that it has reached a voltage limit and the reason why this does not change unless idling. This voltage, however is also set for the default settings of the card. So I just want to know if this voltage is safe, the fact it is saying the limit is reaching in red writing is concerning. Apart from this everything else is fine, the temp doesn't go any higher than 73c but I can lower this by setting the fan higher. Any help regarding voltages would be greatly appreciated and any general overclocking help would also be appreciated

Thanks

1.175v is just fine. my 670s (same Kepler GPU family) max out at the same voltage @ stock settings. i believe the only voltage unlocked GTX 600 series GPU was the 670 from MSI (there could be more).
