on cgnat you cant do port forwarding and i thought for mining i needed port forwarding

As NFW mentioned, no port-forwarding is needed for mining, you may need that to directly access your miners over the WAN but that is a bad idea in the first place and there are better and more secured methods to access/monitor your gears, where I come from I'd say 80-90% of internet users are behind a NAT, we need to pay almost double the price to get a public IP, I don't know how things are elsewhere but my "educated" guess is that many if not most miners are behind a CGNAT.

Thanks for your answers and for gpu mining is there any problem?

This section is BTC only and thus it's ASIC-related questions only, but the answer is there is no problem with that either.

Yes, there should be no problem at all, you probably didn't find anything on google because nobody bothered to talk about it because it is so obvious? mind telling me what could go wrong mining behind a CGN?

Not when mining using ASIC-based miners. You can assign ports to connect through but port-forwarding is not used. Considering this is a Bitcoin-only area that means ASIC hardware so - no problem.
