DateTime a = DateTime.Now.AddHours(3);
DateTime b = DateTime.Now;

// Subtracts the dates
TimeSpan c = a.Subtract(b);

DateTime a = DateTime.Now.AddHours(3);
DateTime b = DateTime.Now;

// Subtracts the dates
TimeSpan c = a.Subtract(b);

and then compare it with TimeSpan.FromHours(3).
With C# you can compare using the "<" operator,
or you can use the TimeSpan.Compare(..) method.

Or (a step less), use the DateTime.Compare(..) method.
