For Intel UHD Graphics 770, the maximum shared memory will be limited by Windows to one-half of system memory.

Keep in mind that XPS 8960 with UHD Graphics will only have one DP++ port. So you can connect either a DP monitor or an HDMI monitor. DP++ will automatically recognize an HDMI monitor when you use a simple passive DP++(PC)>HDMI(monitor) adapter (not an active adapter).
So if you need to run more than one monitor, you'll need either a DP MST hub with multiple video ports, or at least one monitor that supports DP daisy chaining, or an add-in video card.
