Hello, I successfully overclocked my GTX 1060 G1 gaming model with 6GB RAM using MSI afterburner.
I added on +175 core clock and +720 memory clock, set power limit to 110.
Testing showed stability at +60% core voltage, with the GPU fan running at full speed for 57 degrees.
I’m wondering if it’s acceptable to run at +60% core voltage?
Also, I only overclock when I’m experiencing less than 60 FPS in games.

I question if it's really 60%, probably around 60mV. You might consider lowering the maximum fan speed to cut down on noise, 57C feels quite comfortable for a GPU. Nvidia chips are voltage-locked, so you can't really increase their voltage much. As long as the cooling is adequate and you've identified the stability limits, it should be fine to keep things as they are.
