what's the difference of the 2 same VIA c3-800?

I think the upper is common.

Have they both got the same voltage rating? That's the biggest clue to what core is in each of them...

I use this resource for identify the VIA CPU's
http://www.bytes-and-more.de/tech/via_c3_tech.htm

May be the first is a Samuel 2 or an Ezra core (vary the voltage) and the second an Ezra-T.

The second one could also be a Nehemia (see http://www.ukcpu.net/Collection/Processors/VIA/C3/C3_Images/C3_133_866A_1.4V.jpg for an 866MHz example that is otherwise the same).

That is why knowing the voltage (and in some cases other markings) will always tell you more than just knowing the part number, especially for the C3 chips (note that if anyone wants to check the info on my site, I currently have the wrong thumbnail for the Nehemiah 866AMHz, and will be changing that on my next update...).
