With GWX you can add a ton of extra mods that make it look just gorgeous (MEP, German UBoat compilation, ARB wideGui etc). Real eye candy. With NYGM, that's not possible (afaik). So GWX is definitely prettier than NYGM (which doesn't mean that NYGM is ugly. It's not.)

NYGM has it's focus on realistic gameplay. There's the mentioned tonnage system, a different crew management system, a completely overhauled uboat damage system etc etc. And an AI that is a lot deadlier and more threatening than in GWX -or so I have read. I cannot say yet how much smarter the AI really is because I've only just finnished my first patrol in 1939.

I've read that, too, but i cannot confirm. I'm using that additional shipping mod that comes with NYGM and at this point, there's pretty much ecactly as much traffic as there is in GWX.

NYGM can have any graphic update desired too and in my experience, the AI between the two is very comparable.
