The reason I suggest against AS for an inexperienced person is because it is conductive. Combine that with the fact that those same people tend to add too much of it and you can have some shorts. PS3's appear to use just normal compound and do just fine the majority of the time, so to err on the side of caution I always suggest using regular compound. If someone has used heatsink compound many times before and knows how to properly apply a nice thin layer, then by all means use AS.
