You have a GTX 660, and on smaller games it uses about 1.060V. But when playing more demanding titles like Stranded Deep, it jumps to 1.175V. I checked and found that 1.175V is the highest voltage this graphics card can reach. Should I be concerned?

In tougher games, the card will increase its clocks to the maximum, which demands higher voltage. At full boost, it generally uses the available voltage up to its BIOS limits. This is entirely normal, and if your temperatures stay below about 85°C, everything is okay.
