MSI GL62M 7REX or Lenovo Legion Y520

[Straypuft]

Have a chance to buy a new laptop and the 2 I am looking at:

Lenovo:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06WVMJ713/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

MSI:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074VLX5XV/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

The Lenovo is cheaper by about $100 but has a larger ssd, The MSI has a smaller SSD but paired with a 1TB hard drive.
I dont need much storage space at first So I could always add in a 1tb hard drive later to the lenovo. Do I really need an i7 that the MSI has? I think the most demanding thing that might ever be put on whatever I choose will be GTA V, I dont play many of the latest games so modern new games are of no concern to me. Reviews show both laptops can play GTA V fine.

Having a backlit keyboard is a must for me.

These 2 laptops are on my mind due to them being part of a financing option offered to me.
